Project Description
The Bold Audio BA12 delivers extremely high output for its size and weight, Biamp or Passive operation and full 1100W AES of power handling. BA12 can be used for sound reinforcement or on its side as a high-power stage monitor.
The engineering department at Bold Audio has chosen to implement industry-leading BMS speaker components inside many of our designs including the BA12. The BA12 houses our flagship Neodymium 12″ 1000 watt AES drive unit. The 4-inch sandwiched voice coil is surrounded by a unique triple-aluminum demodulating ring assembly that delivers lower voice coil temperatures combined with lower mid-band distortion levels when compared to standard drivers.
The BA12 high-frequency section uses our Hyper-Wave™ custom rotatable 90×60 horn that’s coupled to a 1-inch exit BMS annular diaphragm compression driver rated at 80W AES and 450W Peak. The compression driver uses a polyester diaphragm to dramatically lower harmonic distortion compared to metal diaphragm drivers.
Protection from moisture and weather come from a front and back double waterproofing cone treatment to resist any weather damage.Russian Birch plywood was used to reduce cabinet harmonics and ensure years of uncompromised cabinet durability and strength. A Warnex water-based texture coating finishes the exterior of BA12 to provide protection against scrapes and road use.
Fixed installations are possible with the use of the BA12-Brac yoke mount assembly for vertical or horizontal mounting and 12xM10 mounting points allow for unlimited installation options. The BA12 input panel features Dual NL4 passive inputs and dual NL4 for Bi-amp operation eliminating the need for a physical switch.
